NEBULA - AUSTRALIAN CATTLE DOG/BLUE HEELER / AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERD / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Australian Shepherd / Mixed (short coat). Nebula Pembroke, MA Sisters Nebula and Gamora are ready to blast off on new adventures! These little firecrackers are bold, smart, and will give you a run for your money. Both pups are high energy and will require active homes who are interested in working both their bodies and minds. A fenced in yard will be beneficial for this, but in the end it's going to come down to your commitment to fulfilling their needs. Both pups have an interest in training with high food motivation, and show some good drive towards toys: they enjoy chasing disc/frisbee rollers and playing a little tug. Their ideal homes have breed experience and an interest in training or dabbling in sports. Channel their energy into proper avenues or they'll use it for chaos and anarchy! Speaking of training, the pups are working on housetraining, crating, and foundational skills. As puppies, their adoptive families will need to continue this work. Nebula shows a lot of curiosity and is a pretty bold baby, tackling new objects in her environment without concern. She is inquisitive but cautious around kittens, is quick to make friends with new people, and has a lot of exposure to dogs of various breeds. She is playful with puppies and adult dogs, but can get a little overwhelmed if a larger dog comes in too rambunctiously and will take space to watch them from a distance. Nebula has been neutral towards people and dogs out in public, but can be quick to alert when she hears people but can't see them - we are working on this and she's making progress, but apartments with shared walls probably aren't her cup of tea while she's learning. Nebula and Gamora have an estimated birthday around the end of April, and were 13lbs each at around 11wks of age. They were surrendered without either parent, but appear to be a herdy mix (ACD, and perhaps Aussie Shepherd or BC with a splash of Corgi). They are microchipped and up to date on monthly preventatives/deworming, have age-appropriate vaccinations, and are being adopted out on spay contracts to allow their puppy bodies and minds more time to develop. The puppies are available to separate homes, and must meet their potential families prior to adoption in order to help ensure a great match.
